I also prefer a 15" and it is too big sometime
I would like to get a 17" monitor to use with mine but they are getting hard to find

This has not been Lynns week.

Really? Wow your one of the few that have had bad luck with them!

Ive had one that was up at just about the 500k km mark, and still ran strong, I even still see it driving around now and then when I go back to where I sold it.

I bought it used and beat on er hard too!

I have saw 302s with lots of miles but not on my yard
Had a conversion van engine went at 56k and needed another at 101k.F150 did get 96k running on borrowed time for 20k of that
Both were babied and serviced every 2000 miles
Still have the 150 with a 351W in it with about 6000 miles on it since '94

You mean that isn't your motto too?

I got yelled at on the way home from the store tonight for blowing the doors off some chick. Apparently, eggs are fragile.
